Our Story

About our Founder, Ron Nelson

Owner Ron Nelson is a 2nd generation Building Contractor in the San Francisco Bay Area.

“Working with my father Roy E. Nelson since the age of 14 years. Construction was in my blood. After my father retired in 1984 I applied and received my license. While working in commercial and residential projects, my first love is residential building. My goal therefore, is to complete projects that respond to owners needs and aspirations, and accomplish the project within schedule and budget, which contributes to the quality of our homes and our lives within them.”
